Sam is wrong as usual.

The Constitution defines who the country belongs to, and tea partiers fit the bill, not the anti-Constitutionalists.

Beyond that, the Declaration defines our rights as God-given.

America is a Republic. That Republic does not “belong” to a group of voters that out-cheat and/or out-vote the rest. That’s why Franklin answered the woman who asked him what kind of government the Founders created, “a Republic, madame, if you can keep it”.

The Second Amendment is profoundly KEY to that. Like another posted, people who set out to infringe on that right or any other, are PRECISELY the people America does NOT belong to, because they are trying to destroy the Republic, not keep it.
